In the room, Gu Hua's mother was sitting at the table sewing clothes, and when she saw Gu Hua coming in, she immediately stopped and looked towards Gu Hua.

"Hua'er, have you gone to participate in the academy assessment?" Menghe asked.

"Mother, I'm sorry, it's the child who didn't listen to his mother. ”

Since childhood, he has had a great talent and interest in painting, but Menghe has always been opposed to learning to paint in ancient painting, and even no painting tools can appear at home.

is also the same, the ancient painting chose to secretly run to participate in the assessment, but he didn't expect to be discovered by his mother.

"Hua'er, do you know the meaning of your name?" Menghe didn't blame Gu Hua, but asked with a complicated look in his eyes.

Hearing this, Gu Hua shook his head.

"Your name is a 'painting', and painting is the most sacred thing in our world, and your father named you Guhua in the hope that you can become the strongest painter. Your father used to be a painter in the realm of painting emperors, but then because he was too obsessed with painting, he went crazy, and his mother was the only one of your relatives in this world, and she didn't want you to take this path, and she didn't want you to repeat the mistakes of the past. ”

Looking at his mother's red eyes, Gu Hua's heart ached, no wonder his mother never mentioned his father's news, no wonder his mother kept preventing him from learning to paint.

"Mother, the child knows. Gu Hua originally wanted to explain and even convince his mother, but now after listening to these words, he doesn't know how to convince.

......

In Moxing Academy, Mu Yue had never been happier than he was today.

After many years, I finally met a genius painter! Cultivate well, and your future achievements are absolutely immeasurable!

But he certainly didn't expect that the genius painter in his eyes had already decided to quit.

The next morning, Gu Hua didn't go to Gu Yu's house to borrow a painting bag, and came directly to Moxing Academy, planning to tell Mu Yue about quitting the academy.

There were more than a dozen of them who passed the assessment yesterday, and they were all standing in front of the door of Moxing Academy at the moment, their little faces full of excitement.

"Gu Hua, you came so early. Lin Xi'er ran a few steps to the ancient painting.

"My house is far away, so I came out a little early. The ancient painting replied.

"How's your preparation?"

"Ready?" Gu Hua looked at Lin Xi'er in surprise.

"Have you forgotten that you were going to make a bet with Li Tian today?" asked Lin Xi'er with wide eyes.

Hearing this, Gu Hua remembered this matter, and said with a dry smile: "I was not prepared. ”

I didn't think about it at all when I went home yesterday, but when I heard Lin Xi'er's reminder at this moment, I suddenly thought of it.

"Huh, you, why are you so careless!" Lin Xi'er's face suddenly collapsed.

"Then you've heard of 'Celestial Dragon', do you know that there is any information about Celestial Dragon?" Lin Xi'er tried to ask.

Gu Hua shook his head, "I've heard of the Celestial Dragon, but I only know its name, and I don't know anything else. ”

"Huh? Lin Xi'er suddenly panicked.

"Hahaha..."

Li Tian walked over laughing, "I said a long time ago, this kid can't win me, just wait to kowtow to me and call grandpa, haha!"

"Don't you think! Ancient paintings will definitely win!" Lin Xi'er snorted.

"What do you say he won? He doesn't even have information about Tianlong, do you think he can draw it? I'm different, I went home and read Tianlong's information, and now I already have a picture of Tianlong in my mind. Li Tian said proudly.

Hearing this, Lin Xi'er glanced at the ancient painting with a resentful look in her eyes, and her heart became even more anxious.

"Are you really unprepared?" Lin Xi'er felt that Gu Hua should not be the kind of careless person, and it was a matter of his reputation, how could he forget to prepare.

"Not really. The ancient painting replied ashamedly, not carelessly forgetting, but not having the heart to think about it.

Hearing this, the last glimmer of hope in Lin Xi'er's heart was shattered.

"Haha! Or you can just admit defeat now, kowtow to me three times, and call grandpa three times. Li Tian laughed out loud and said with a mocking face.

"Don't be too happy, the ancient painting said it on purpose. Lin Xi'er comforted herself, although she had no confidence in her heart at the moment, she just couldn't get used to Li Tian's arrogant face.

"Don't cry when you don't see the coffin, since you are so confident, then let's raise the stakes, if he can draw the heavenly dragon, I will drink the ink, otherwise, let him drink the ink, how about it?" Li Tian asked proudly.

Without waiting for Lin Xi'er to speak, Gu Hua took the lead and said, "No problem." ”

"Are you crazy?" Lin Xi'er suspected that her ears had heard it wrong, and looked at the ancient painting with a surprised expression.

"The reason why the painter is sacred is that the painter can not only paint the things that exist in the world, but also the things that do not exist, as long as there is imagination and understanding, even things that have never been seen before. Mu Yue slowly walked in front of the ancient paintings.

"Hello Mr. Mu!"

The dozen or so students immediately stood respectfully.

"Well, I heard what you just said, before entering the academy, you two will compete first. Mu Yue looked at the two and said, when he looked at the ancient painting, it was obvious that Mu Yue's eyes showed a touch of joy.

Li Tian took off the painting bag and took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

"I didn't bring a painting bag. Gu Hua said helplessly.

"Ahh Lin Xi'er stared at a pair of beautiful eyes, and she was very surprised.

Li Tian directly began to lay out the paper and paint, everything went smoothly, as if he really had a picture of the dragon in his head, and the outline of the dragon was outlined in three or two strokes.

The ancient painting took Lin Xi'er's painting bag, but closed his eyes slightly, holding a mahogany paintbrush in his hand, and thought quietly.

There is a huge difference in the state of the two, Li Tianbi walked like a snake, in one go, and soon depicted the appearance of Tianlong.

"Li Tian has won, although I haven't seen Tianlong, but what Li Tian painted is the same as the legend. ”

"The ancient painting has not been brushed yet, so it may be that I have admitted defeat. ”

A few students on the side whispered.

Lin Xi'er's beautiful eyes stared at the ancient painting, and her heart became more and more anxious.

Li Tian glanced at the ancient painting and found that the ancient painting had not yet started to be painted, and he immediately became proud.

Hmph, compare with me, obediently wait to call grandpa!

Li Tian's Tianlong is becoming clearer and clearer, standing on the top of the mountains, looking up at the sky, full of momentum, very similar to the rumored Tianlong.

At this moment, the ancient painting opened its eyes and began to paint.

Seeing the ancient painting moving, Lin Xi'er immediately looked over, but when she saw the painting of the ancient painting, her heart was completely cold.

The ancient painting does not depict a dragon, but a bunch of clouds, forming a sea of clouds.

"Ancient paintings, have you given up?" Lin Xi'er looked at the ancient paintings with complicated eyes.

But at this moment, the ancient painting is completely immersed in the painting, holding a mahogany brush, the pen is calm, sketching up little by little, and soon, the paper is covered with a sea of clouds, which looks extremely spectacular, however, at this time, there is no shadow of the dragon.

Li Tian had already finished the painting, looked at the ancient painting proudly, and couldn't help laughing when he saw that the ancient painting was painting the sea of clouds.

Soon, the sea of clouds finished painting, and the sea of clouds covered the entire drawing paper.

Just when everyone thought that the ancient painting was coming to an end, they found that it was not.

The ancient painting began to sketch in the sea of clouds, as if it was painting a celestial dragon.

One stroke at a time, one by one, every movement is extremely coherent and done in one go.

"It's done. ”

Gu Hua put away his brush and said with a chuckle.

"Hahaha! Boy, are you sure you are drawing a dragon? What is the difference between you and a python? laugh at me, do you know what a dragon is like?" Li Tian laughed wildly a few times, and couldn't help but sneer.

"Can this also be called a celestial dragon? It looks like a big snake flying in a sea of clouds. ”

"It's not like it, it's just a big python!

"It's still Li Tian's painting is good, it's basically the same as the rumored Tianlong, with limbs like pillars, a huge body, a thick tail, and roaring in the sky, it's really too powerful. ”

Listening to the discussions of several students around him, Li Tian felt even more proud.

Lin Xi'er's eyes are complicated, in her opinion, the painting skills of ancient paintings are indeed very strong, but the two are comparing the painting of Tianlong, and it is obvious that Li Tian's painting is closer to the rumored appearance of Tianlong.

"Great, the painting is so good! This is the real Tianlong!" Mu Yue couldn't help but admire, and then walked towards Gu Hua and Li Tian.

Li Tian was proud in his heart, and Teacher Mu Yue must be recognizing him.

Others thought the same way, but Mu Yue did not stop beside Li Tian, but came directly to the ancient painting, carefully picked up the painting of the ancient painting with both hands, and his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his face was irrepressibly excited.
